Hardcore troubadour 12,764 Posted August 25, 2022 The best part about being a Giants fan right now is not being a Jets fan. What are you other fans that have hope thinking? I like the Bills and Chargers afc, big surprise, and think the NFC is wide open except for a few teams (giants). Philly is growing on me as a dark horse.

I'll be looking for progression from players to see if they have a chance in future years. Hoping to see if Fields is a franchise QB or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BiPolarBear 476 Posted August 25, 2022 Brady has never lost to the Cowboys with the Patriots or the Bucs (he's 6 and 0). That's the 'boys first game, and I expect nothing to change. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brad GLuckman 518 Posted August 26, 2022 Looking forward to another year of GB having a great regular season, getting my hopes up, and then sh!tting their pants in the playoffs. Clockwork. Can't complain though. At least they make it interesting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MDC 5,915 Posted August 26, 2022 I just can’t buy into the Eagles as a true contender but they’ll be better. All the attention is on AJ Green but the D got better at all three levels. I’ll say 10-7 and maybe they win a playoff game. I think Philly is looking for a new QB next year but I hope I’m wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JustinCharge 2,397 Posted August 26, 2022 The Bengals have to be a favorite just because everyone else in the division took steps backwards. The Ravens have no established WRs or RBs. The Steelers and Browns have no QB. People likely throw cold water on them because of their horrible history prior to reaching the Super Bowl a year ago. If it was almost any other franchise in that position, they'd easily be called a favorite tho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cruzer 1,992 Posted August 26, 2022 Cowboys lose Tyron Smith for (practically) the whole year - what's new? Smith hasn't played a whole season in like 7 years. When he has played, has been nothing special...

MTSkiBum 1,598 Posted August 26, 2022 I have lived in Houston long enough that I can start to call myself a fan. I am hoping for 1.01 from the browns and maybe a 6-11 type season where Davis mills shows that he might be a franchise QB if surrounded with more 1st round picks.

I really dunno. He was just okay in his last year here. I didn’t even know he played for the Bears until now. If they weren’t division rivals Andre Dillard would make sense as a trade piece. But he’s probably worth more to the Eagles as a backup swing tackle than anything Dallas would trade. Not that he’s great but he can play at a league average LT level and he’s a backup in Philly. Jordan Mailata is an absolute monster btw. He may be my favorite active Eagle. Philly doesn’t always get it right but the fans have been blessed with stellar OL play for 20 years.

GobbleDog 822 Posted August 26, 2022 2022 to forever be known as the Year of the Fish Haven't been this excited about the Dolphins in over a decade. Upgraded coach, o-line, Rbs, Wrs, to compliment an already solid defense. The only question is Tua, who should thrive given the situation. Really hope he does because it's fun rooting for a player your team drafted (not some free-agent) and is one of the classiest players in the league. I'm expecting about five straight Superbowl wins. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GobbleDog 822 Posted August 26, 2022 1 hour ago, edjr said: NFL feels like MLB. You know before the year starts 1/4 of the league has no chance. I grew up in the Dan Marino era... every single season fans thought "we're gonna win the Superbowl this year!" Of course, it didn't happen, but we made the playoffs almost every season and it was exciting. I had no idea what it was like to be a Lions or Browns fan. Then Marino retired and it's been 22 years of knowing before the season starts the Dolphins have close to zero chance of making the playoffs, let alone winning a playoff game. Now I truly understand the fan's misery of the worst NFL teams. That was until now - Dolphins fans finally EXPECT to make the playoffs and hope to win a few. Of course, nobody will be shocked if it doesn't happen, but at least the expectation and excitement of a new season is there. That's been missing for 22 years and it's awesome to finally have that feeling again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
listen2me 23 1,550 Posted August 26, 2022 Miami could go either way. They certainly have some talent. But the Bills win that division and the AFC as a whole is pretty stacked right now.
